The Canadian Court of the Queens
Bench has decided s'that any married
Canadian citizen who crosses the line
and marries again in the United States
can not on his return be prosecuted
successfully for bigamy" This decision
will probably add large number of Utah
Saints to the American criminal colony
already, established in Canada by the
efforts of ex-bank cashiers and doodle"
aldermen.

IT is being authentically whispered
that the mass of corruption discovered
in the Wasatch building, and locally
dubbed the "Wasatch Horror" had no
corporeal nature, but was merely a Nor

slevees at the latest sensation of the Gen
tile paners.

his opinion on capital and labor, and will

might grow tired of waiting on them.

Coffee aud ChicOry.

Adulteration of food is prevalent and
is just cause for complaint. Coffee,
however, seems to be rightfuly free from
the charge. The mixture of chicory with
the deliciou. beverage is generally con-
demncd in this country, but abroad it is
actually demanded. The recent enor-
nous rise in the price of coffee has at
tracted a gool deal Of speculative atten-
ton to its ncxt-door neighbor. The
''black coffee served at many of the
high-class restaurants is sometimes made
entirely OF the root. In Germany 80 per
cent. OF chicory is added to the coffee,
and in France over 40 per cent. In the
Unite States for general use but per
cent. In almost quite all of our penal
and charitable institutions the 'coffee"
drank on the premises is made from
,astcd hard-t tack, rye, or peas, with a
small percentage of chicory to give it a
coffee flavor. These are called adultera-
tions, but certainly they are not. Per-
haps the concoctioa is not legitimately
"coffec" any more than a drink made
of sage or boneset is "tea" Yet they are
beneficial and to the very nervous of
better service than if made from the
coffee bean itself. C,licory is largely
cultivated in Belgium and France but
the Province OF NJ .gdeburg, in Germany,
produces it the more abundantly. 1t
comes in hog sheads, and the heaviest
consgnments are under the monogram
"H. S." CHenry Seggcrmann, famous
German importer, now dcccascd.) Ex-
pcrts in coffee making say that Is pei
cent. of chicory is the requisite, and that
the larger percentage used in Germany
and Fran &C is because Of the enormous
duty on coffee cxacted in those unfavored
countries. In making coffee mix two
kinds, Java and Mocha, (not the Rio pea
berry that closely resembles Mocha, and
add Is per cent. of chicory; break into

well as the meat; use cold water to ;

Heat as n Purifier,

Fro is thorough purifier. Two hun
drcd and twelve degrees Of heat, accord
ing to Fahrenheit, is the lowest degree
to which it is safe to expose infected
meat, and as all kinds of meat arc al
ways subject to more or less disease, or
worms, invisible, it may be, to common
microscope, it is not safe to eat any kind,
unless cooked by applying 212 deg. F.
Heat is complete remedy for many
things. Heat is great purifier as we'll
as sweetener of food and drink. Germs
Of disease are lurking in many things.
Water from sluggish streams, pools or
,loughs should never be used until
boiled. 1t is nearly always full of dis
ease or injurious animalcu'a. BY boiling,
settlers in new countries, where pure,
living water cannot at first be had,
might be exempt from many protracted
or even fatal diseases. When potatoes,
apples and ether vegetables are rotting,
the sound parts should not be eaten raw,
as the fungus or disease with which
they are dccaying is frequently poison
to the human system. And it is prob
able that many of the malarial diseases,
such as fever and ague, neuralgia, ETC.,
could be avoided by strictly using
cooked food, and water purified by heat.
The microscope is revealing wonders in
the science Of medicine, in anatomy, in
physiology and in nearly all the natural
sciences. The atomic theory is having
an increasing throng of adherents.

There is q great deal of difference in

are quite low, as you know, while French

What the Fences Cost.

The cost of all fences in the United
States amounts TO 81, 747, $40, 931, or
nearly equal to the interest bearing debt,
and about the same as the estimated
value of all the farm animals, so that for
every dollar invested in live stock ar
other dollar is required for constructing
protection against the ravages upon
crops The annual repairs. together
with interest on the amount invested in
the existing fences, amounted to nearly

Shop!ifters in CitY Stores.

A flor walker thoroughly po,ted on
shopliftcrs is worth $3.50 OF $4,000 q
year to any one Of the larger stores. Tho
Pinkertons of Chicago tried to establish
a branch OF this kind of detective work
among the leading retail stores of st.
Louis, but were not success full in tho
attempt. The very best of the profes-
sional shopliftcrs d, not visit any one
store oftoner than probably a dom
times year. They know almost as soon
as one trying to spot them that they are
watched. The most successful racket
they work TO conceal their identity is
the wearing of heavy black mourning
veil. A few years ago they generally
carried basket and were more easily
caught. Customers in general soon
became aware of the fact that any one
carrying basket through store was
closely shadowed, and they dropped tho
habit, until to-day it is hard matter
to find woman with one, unless It is
the hard working German. A male
shoplifter is very rare, and during my
twelve years experience in St. Louis ]
have seen but one.
